Product Description

Sixty years ago, an interest in the earlier forms of Jazz seems to have emerged almost simultaneously in several places around the world. In America there had been a successful attempt in 1938 to locate some of the old Jazz musicians who had never left New Orleans and for the most part, were unknown to record collectors. The principal discovery was Bunk Johnson and the group that was assembled to record with him. Other Jazz musicians such as Kid Ory were rediscovered after periods of inactivity and obscurity. The book 'Jazzmen' published in 1939 brought news of the discoveries to collectors and created some interest in the older styles. These activities were however little known even elsewhere in America, much less the rest of the world, and an additional interest in earlier styles was beginning to show itself among musicians rather than collectors. Lu Watters was a very key figure in the post war Traditional Jazz revival, and the inspiration to many others in Britain and elsewhere to purvey the wares of New Orleans Jazz. To pursue his musical aims, Watters ran his own club, one incarnation of which was Hambone Kelly's close to San Francisco. This CD features a batch of recordings made in the club (but without an audience), all in classic Dixieland Jazz styling and with the distinctive voice of Clancy Hayes on some. 20 tracks with over 60 minutes playing time.
